Would I buy it. Definitely!! I fell in love with the Boss OU many years ago when Sporting Gun featured a 1932 Boss OU which sold for a record price at The Gleneagles Classic Gun Auction. It was the loveliest gun I have ever seen and I have wanted a Boss OU every since. When I win the lottery it will be my first purchase.
Sir - I would like to ask on your shows, especially outstanding productions like this one. That you increase the lighting. I'm 74 years old. Like most older people I require more light for seeing in my advancing age. I enjoy your shows! Keep up the good work!
@@tgsoutdoors that would be great. Also how did the proofing with the Ithaca go? I just join as a member but couldn’t find the video so I figured either it didn’t go well or you hadn’t gotten to it yet. Thanks for the reply.
That Bosis. Phwoah…But that Boss…if it were possible to cleave one’s pin at an inanimate object then this is the object. It puts the ‘fine’ in refined.
Some really good selections. A few apparent imperfections on the Boss seemed evident even on the video. I think they would not have been found on earlier examples from their golden age. Of course, today's metallurgy is much better but some of the meticulous attention to detail seems to have been lost.
@@Lostandfound-h3n Sorry that I didn't receive notice of your question when you posted it. A few things popped out to me (and my eyesight isn't perfect) were the misaligned screw slot, step between the superior edge of the forend iron and the frame on the off side, ridge where the stock abuts the standing breech (no inletting of the standing breech at this point is....well, crude and would probably be the case in earlier decades. Purdey is even doing that now in SXS's), wood is proud of the forend latch and the latter seems to be too deeply inletted, side plates seem to be too deeply inletted and the pins are unusually proud. I don't know that Boss didn't always do the latter, but it seems crude. Sidelock screw on the off side isn't level and neither is the forend iron screw on the near side. I think there was a scratch on one of the barrels, but it's a used gun. Thought I saw a chip in the wood but haven't review the whole video to be sure.
unsubscribed guys , nothing to do with this video in particular its just all the same now gun nut but they all starting to look the same with the same words used etc et time to move on , good luck.
@@tgsoutdoors is there a way viewers in the States can logically import a Holts Auction Pre 1890 gun? The Cogswell once belonging to Gough Thomas because of American gun writer Michael McIntosh would be the object of my desire.
Every minutes passed watching you two is a minute not wasted! Thank you!
Thank goodness Holts is in the UK or I’d be broke😎
You could do with an additional boss in the cabinet
@@tgsoutdoors I’d rather have a Stoeger😎
@@tgsoutdoors but yes that Over Under Boss would look nice

I loved those 1 hour videos of you at Holt's looking through some epic guns
I agree the Scottish guns are just stunning. Of course all the guns shown are great. Excellent video as usual.
Bloody shagback daily. That's one hell of an auction! That Boss, though 😲
Finally, Johnny is back from his galavanting and back at Holt's, all is right with the world again 😂
Where I belong

Beautiful, very beautiful! How I wish I had one jus to look at it., I will be fun. Jesus Christ , look an wander full hand work.
.
very beautiful all guns
The try gun would be a great piece in any collection
The Thomas Horsley hammer guns in the auction look stunning, is there a video coming?
This is delicious what a great line
I want them all so much!
God damn it!
I wonder what happened to the other Woodward from the pair.
I'm surprised lot 1850, the Cogswell owned by Gough Thomas didn't get mentioned by either of you
I can do a members with it if you want?
@@tgsoutdoors that would be great. Also how did the proofing with the Ithaca go? I just join as a member but couldn’t find the video so I figured either it didn’t go well or you hadn’t gotten to it yet. Thanks for the reply.
When are you going deer stalking with your 303?
That Bosis. Phwoah…But that Boss…if it were possible to cleave one’s pin at an inanimate object then this is the object. It puts the ‘fine’ in refined.
Is the Harkom Damascus strong enough for RST 2.5” shells??
Anyone have a guess at what it would cost to import a gun to the USA??
Was the Boss built for Eric Clapton?
Sounds silly, but I’d heard Eric Claptons Boss’s were in 16 bore, gods calibre
Why are you posting films under the guise of Proofhouse TSG?
👌👌
Lovely but how many of these guns are useable in the coming age of steel? Surely not the Damascus barrels on some of these guns?
If they're nitro proofed they should be just with very low pressure loads
Joy :D

pretty steep commission of 25%. WOW
Indeed.
This is straight on gun porn I’m soooooo jealous
They are not bad
Mm mm mm their simply, well very delicious.
A hammer gun with a single trigger? That's not just un- English it's unnatural.
😂 for some reason I am drawn to it!

They have a habit of doing that after a while, hope to see you back when you need a dose

@@tgsoutdoors Amusing reply since "a dose" means something specific in USA slang that it likely doesn't in the UK.
